Build

Windows portable exe:

npm ci
npm run check
npm run dist:win

macOS Apple Silicon DMG, run on macOS:

npm ci
npm run check
npm run dist:mac:unsigned

Signed macOS release DMG, run on macOS with an Apple Developer ID Application certificate available in the keychain:

npm ci
npm run check

Build artifacts are written to dist/.

macOS DMGs built with dist:mac:unsigned are not signed or notarized. Use signed and notarized builds for broad public distribution.

Notes

Profiles are stored in Electron userData. Saved profile passwords use Electron safeStorage when the OS supports it.

Profile backups are local files. By default they do not include saved passwords. Password backups are encrypted with the backup password entered during export.

Microsoft SQL Server uses SQL authentication. Named instances need SQL Browser enabled or a reachable TCP port.

Databases are selected after connection from the database list. Profiles store the endpoint and credentials, not a forced startup table.

There is no KSHRedactor account or sync service. Database credentials stay in the local app process and are used only for the connection selected by the user.
